    Hi Peter and others,
    
    After some new simulations, here is the status of the tpc tracking:
    
      TPM1: ok, gives some local tracks in most of cases
      TPM2: no tracks, only 5 detector hits=09
      T1:   no tracks, only 4 detector hits
      T2:   no tracks, only 2 detector hits
    
    I threw a single particle in each event, so that it goes through each
    tpc detector. I digitized with TestGeantDig (that uses BrDigitizeTPC) and
    then reconstructed with Peter's procedure (cf. previous email) but also
    with the old BrTPCTrackingModule (wich gave me the same results for
    local tracks).=20
    
    My guess is therefore that something weird occurs during the digitization
    step but I may be wrong since I'm not a TPC expert. I should mention that
    I was using the latest version of brat (1.8.2 as far as I know).
    
    If some of you could give me a hint (I went through the tpc class code and
    I must say I have some hard time in understanding it).
    
    Thanks for your help.
    
    Djam
